Drew showed the world that with the help of MySpace and great word of mouth, anyone with worthwhile work ethic and talent can start a monumental snowball effect towards success. After recording an EP by himself in his basement, NeverShoutNever! became an instant online success story, averaging over 40,000 online plays a day, and headlining shows throughout the Midwest. In early July, he was positioned in the top spot on the MySpace unsigned artist listing, and his first official release, the YIPPEE EP (July 29th), was followed up by a performance on TRL’s “on your radar” segment the very next day.
Drew started his climb to stardom in mild fashion. He learned to play the guitar from a friend early in his teen years. Then, his parents bought him a Macintosh computer for Christmas and with some sound-editing software, Drew was on his way to stardom.
As of November 17, 2008, the official spelling of Ingle's alias became NeverShoutNever! It had previously been listed as Never Shout Never on iTunes and his management company’s site. An official statement regarding the reason behind the spelling change has not been made available. In an interview, Ingle revealed that there is no longer an exclamation point after his name and that he will spell NeverShoutNever as one word when he is feeling happy, but three words when he isn’t. Warner Bros. Records is spelling his name as “Never Shout Never” for the upcoming release.
After experimenting with a couple of other names, Drew settled on Never Shout Never, the name of one of his songs, to represent him musically.
Ingle follows a strict vegan diet. His music career caused him to drop out of his high school, Joplin Senior High, before graduation.

I Love You 5
Never Shout Never Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I love you four, that's more than I can afford
And I can tell some day that I'm gonna' say the truth
I love you five
I've been walking around
Trying to figure out
Why I am feeling all the feelings that I'm feeling now
Then I've got on my plate
I love you one, a two, a three shoobee-doo
I love you four, that's more than I can afford
And I can tell, some day that I'm gonna' say the truth
I love you five times more than any boy from before
Cause all they really cared about was whether you put out
And I truly believe (I truly believe)
That this love could be
And I could count five times off the top of my head
Where I sucked it in
Cause you were hanging with him
And I got something to say
I love you all the same
I love you one, a two, a three shoobee-doo
I love you four, that's more than I can afford
And I can tell some day that I'm gonna' say the truth, yeah
I love you one, a two, a three shoobee-doo
I love you four, that's more than I can afford
And I can tell some day that I'm gonna' say the truth
I love you, five
I love you, five
I love you, five

Line by Line Meaning
I love you one, a two, a three shoobee-doo
I love you in multiple ways, where each way is counted like a beat in a song
I love you four, that's more than I can afford
I love you more than what is practical or reasonable
And I can tell some day that I'm gonna' say the truth
I know that I will eventually express my true feelings for you
I've been walking around
I have been wandering aimlessly
Trying to figure out
Attempting to understand
Why I am feeling all the feelings that I'm feeling now
Why am I experiencing a variety of emotions at this moment
And I got more on my mind
I have many things to think about
Then I've got on my plate
More than I can handle or deal with
I love you five times more than any boy from before
I care for you more deeply than anyone else in my past
Cause all they really cared about was whether you put out
The only thing they desired in the relationship was sexual intimacy
And I truly believe (I truly believe)
I genuinely think and feel
That this love could be
This could potentially develop into a meaningful relationship
And I could count five times off the top of my head
I can recall on five specific occasions
Where I sucked it in
I kept my feelings inside
Cause you were hanging with him
Because you were spending time with someone else
And I got something to say
I have something important to express
I love you all the same
I feel the same amount of love for you regardless of what happens
And I can tell some day that I'm gonna' say the truth, yeah
I know that one day I will be completely honest about my feelings for you
I love you, five
I love you immensely, more than the four previous declarations
